Helps us to implement and understand the status of our projects
The initial setup is straightforward. The solution's deployment takes around two months time. We have to set up the solution. We have to put in the data to ensure that the solution is working. We need to fill out our process, our tools, and our data. Two developers were involved in the deployment process. It is a self-maintained solution that requires updates from time to time. I rate the setup an eight out of ten.

Easy to tag people and has a form system to collect information but cannot work in multiple channels simultaneously
There are several areas where Wrike could improve. First, it doesn't allow accessing multiple channels simultaneously, which would be useful. Transferring data from one project to another is also difficult. It would be easier to work on parallel tasks across different projects. I've noticed others facing similar issues when I check the chat on their website. The tool should also improve coordination between external stakeholders and collaborators. It should also integrate financial features.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The dashboard is the most valuable feature."
"ERP approach to IT (edit architecture elements as data using forms, easier for many people compared to drawing / modeling) Hundreds of predefined reports (not only for analysis but also for displaying profiles for single elements like an application including dynamically generated diagrams based on edited data) Very sophisticated meta model (dozens of man years of experience condensed in it) Enterprise collaboration features Web client for the enterprise, either on-site installation or running in a private cloud."
"My personal experience with the product was good, primarily because of the support team's responsiveness."
"I would recommend trying planningIT"
"Using Wrike improved the way our organization functions in several ways: It provides a single repository for all projects, inter and intra-team collaboration on projects, ability to reallocate resources across projects in a more agile manner, it gives project management more visibility and democratizes project management by making the tools so easy to use that team members take more ownership of project tasks."
"This is a great product if you take the time to learn it and implement it in a way that makes sense for your business."
"Visibility and organization are the most valuable features of Wrike."
"It's an excellent project management tool in creating a successful project."
"Wrike as a task management tool gives a lot of flexibility in creating, updating and managing tasks with such ease in comparison to other tools I have used."
"I can see at a glance what assignments are in process, who they are assigned too, and it basically saves me a lot of time and confusion trying to keep track of everyone and their workloads."
"In the dashboard, you have a perfect overview to all assigned, to do, and overdue tasks and in activity stream, you get news about the work that is done in your team."
"Customer Service: Amazing Technical Support: Great"
 

Cons

"The tool is clearly not very intuitive."
"The user-experience, enhanced performance, and in-hand governance can be improved."
"Only few predefined integrations with other tools exist, most integrations are implemented via an integration module based on XML typically needing vendor expertise."
"Unfortunately there are a few dislikes: Various exports like the whole folder structure with the users who are directly shared with or the users/collaborators full list is not working."
"Sometimes, since it's in the cloud, information isn't updated as fast as you need it to be."
"The product needs to send direct emails to customers updating the latest aspects since it is better to hear directly."
"The mobile interface really needs work. It's hard to navigate and find tasks or folders/projects."
"The response from the website is a little bit slow, and the tool is too expensive for a small team."
"What annoys me with Wrike and things that I would like to improve is that you need to have a very organized workflow that everyone in the company follows, and only then will Wrike work."
"It is great for smaller projects, but cannot replace Project or Smartsheet."
"The main downfall for us is the lack of ability to apply time (budget) for tasks/projects as well as scheduling to make sure that we aren't overstacking a department with too much work at a quick glance."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is expensive. There is a yearly licensing cost. There are no additional costs, only the standard license, and the cloud license."
"Wrike is not so expensive, but I don't know exactly how it compares with other tools. Wrike might not be so cheap when we are using it for a lot of users."
"From a pricing perspective, I would rate Wrike a four out of five."
"Wrike is expensive."
"Wrike is very expensive, and its price is almost $1,400."
